Fifth Floor Common Room, Monday Evening

"Can you hand me the ginger?" Ronan asked, as he ground some spices with a mortar and pestle. "The fresh, I mean." The fragrant smells of cooking curry were already pervading the common room, and probably making their way through the rest of the dorms. When Isabel handed over the asked-for ginger, he added some to the mixture in the mortar, and went back to grinding. "Thanks. I hope this isn't too spicy for whoever else comes along," he added.


[OOC: Open, as common rooms are! Come have some curry. :D]

"No, don't be sorry," Isabel said instantly. "It was my fault because I found an enchanted board game. When we started to play it all sorts of weird stuff started to happen. There were monkeys, giant spiders. It got crazy and scary for a while."

"Giant spiders?" said Hoshi. "Thank goodness I didn't run into one of those! Actually, after getting my butt kicked by a vampire, saving Annette from the creepy monkey felt really good. So at least something good came out of it."

"You saved Annette? Go Hoshi," she smiled. "And don't feel bad about not being able to fight the vampire. I couldn't do anything the one time I got attacked."

"So I'm not the only one?" asked Hoshi. "It was pretty embarrassing. Everyone else around here has all these skills and I couldn't even defend myself."

"No. This was over a year ago. Back when I first got here," Isabel said. "A vamp jumped a group of us. My friend got stabbed, and I couldn't do anything. I mean I have my powers, but at the time I was too scared to use them."

"If it makes you feel better though? The vampires are gone from the island again. People took them out last weekend."

"Oh, thank goodness!" said Hoshi. "I've been too freaked out to leave the dorms after dark, and I haven't gone anywhere other than school or work since the attack."

"It's over," Isabel said. "I know the people that did it, and they wouldn't stop until every last vamp was gone."
